The Royal Basement Podcast #2: John Cobb

I've called John Cobb a buddy since the ripe ol' age of 3, and 35 years later, he's still my best friend. There are a few folks in your life that you can genuinely look at and say "My life wouldn't ever have been the same without knowing you", and John is at the top of that list for me. I may be an only child, but I'll always claim John Cobb as my brother.

Having gone through some of our best and worst years together, John has always been one of my closest confidantes for musical inspiration and influence. Visiting from Kansas City, John got down in the basement and played a few songs, shared some stories of our upbringing with me and picked out a few jams of significance, as well.

Podcast is below, broken into two parts, as well as one of John's original tunes. Enjoy.
